- 01:48See, Hercules
- 01:57Come, Blooming boy
- 02:29There the brisk sparkling nectar drain
- 02:30While for thy arms that Beauty glows
- 00:29Away, mistaken wretch, away
- 06:15This menly youth`s exalted mind
- 00:18Rise, youth! exalt thyself and me
- 02:43Go, assert thy hean`nly race
- 00:20In peace, in war
- 02:26So shalt thou gain immortal praise
- 00:37Hearst thou, what dangers
- 02:35Turn thee, youth, to Joy and Love
- 00:38Short is my way - Oh cease, enchanting Siren
- 03:41Yet can I hear that dulcet lay
- 02:23Enjoy the sweet Elysian grove
- 00:16Oh! wither, Reason, dost thou fly?
- 02:22Where shall I go?
- 00:43Mount, mount the steep ascent!
- 01:37Mount, mount the steep ascent
- 02:18Arise, Arise
- 00:17The sounds breathe fire celestial
- 05:16Lead, Goddess, lead the way
- 05:19Virtue will place three
